NCSA Issues Disclaimer on Google/Yahoo Study

Jean Veronis writes "NCSA has issued a strong disclaimer on the study announced recently on Slashdot that seemed to contradicted the fact that Yahoo's index size would be bigger than Google's: ' Staff at the NCSA noted several issues with the study'. This study conducted by students is 'not an NCSA publication and was not conducted as part of any NCSA project or under the supervision of NCSA'. "

    You must be new here. Er wait your UID is lower than mine...

    It happens in spurts, as far as I've noticed. Ever get the "nothign to see here" pages? Same sort of deal.

    I don't think it's the /. effect taking its toll on slashdot though, just bugs in slashcode. OSDN has buttloads of bandwidth and cpu power, point in case: sourceforge.

    If you have a bug that you can better identify, not the 503 errors, report it on the slashcode site.
